Hnusewife Recruiting
Did you know, Mrs. Housewife that half of the potential
(at salvage has been untouched, and one-third of the American
housewives are not saving used cooking fat ?
That is the question posed today by May E. Foley, exten-
sion nutritionist at Massachusetts State College, who quotes
surveys showing that while 98 per cent of the nation's women
kn0w that used cooking fat is still needed, that only 62 per
cent are current salvagers.
This fact bears out the Department of Agriculture's state-
ment that more than half the annual 500,000,000 pounds fat
salvage potential goes down the drain.
Every Massechusetts housewife can cooperate with Gov-
ernor Tobin's Famine Emergency Committee by using less
wheat and fats and oils products, but probably the most tangi-
ble contribution she can make to the world feeding shortage
is the used cooking fat she saves and turns over to the meat
dealer for four cents a pound.
While salvaging fat doesn't feed starving people, it does
lessen both consumer and industrial demands on fats and oils
and allows more food fats to be shipped overseas.

Recreational
Advisory Group
Named by Trayser
Several men from the Hyannls
Steamship Line, Inc., left last night
for Curtis Buy, Maryland , to take
delivery of two government vessels
for the company. These ships are
to he used, according to company
officials , on the Hyannis-Nantuckel
run this summer,
"This type of ship was selected
by the Hyannls Steamship Line for
several reasons," stated Gordon
David , manager. "First , they were
designed and built to Const Guard
standards of seaworthiness, which
Is a real factor on Nantucket
Sound. While not large , only slight-
ly larger than the average yacht ,
Ihey aro of shoal draft , and thero
will be no danger of grounding in
the shallow entrance to Hyannls
Harbor."
The company felt that to pro-
vide reliable service to and from
Nantucket , for residents and sum-
mer visitors alike , there should bo
two vessels available, so that
there would be no danger of
"stranding " passengers. The ship,
built In 1943 by Wheeler Shipyards
at New York to rigid Coast Giiard
specifications, are equipped with
every modern safety device and
more deck area than comparable
vessels of their size. Passengers
taking the voyage will be able to
enjoy the sea air and will not have
to spend their time Inside a cabin.
